inspiraturday.

{nope. that didn't work. that title did not work.}

at rehearsal last Sunday, we talked about our college roommates.

michelle told us that hers loved putting inspirational quotes up everywhere.

everyone laughed, or made a gross face.

and i said, "i'm totally that person."

here's me, being that person. and not feeling bad about it!

just some inspiration:

note: this is just what failures say to make you fail better.
{GET IT?!? that also did not work.}

 

note: what if who are you on the inside is just as bad, if not worse, than your outside?

note: also, computers, tons of TV on DVD, VHS copies of all your dance recitals, Cooler Ranch Doritos, three pairs of boots.

note: but base it on the paths of others so if you fail you can blame them.
tina fey, if i do everything you did, will i have a show called 30 Rock?

all images found at Keep Calm Gallery.

i love you all!

Two Happy Apples

"bananas like to shimmy" - courtesy of Two Happy Apples by Dana Nacer.

A few years ago, my friend Dana told me she wanted to start an illustration business called "Two Happy Apples". I thought it was the best idea ever, and the perfect job for her. Well, today her website, Two Happy Apples, went live. Three years, a move to NYC, a {beautiful}wedding and another degree later... and her dream came true.

For her wedding, she designed everything. The save the dates, the invitations, that placecards, the programs {which were on paddle boards!}, and it was honestly the best wedding I've ever been to - because it was so personal and creative and they made it their own. I wish I had the Save the Date with me to show you - but it's on my fridge... where it has been... for the past two years.

She works really hard and when she's passionate about something - she's going to make it happen. And I'm so glad she did! Super inspiring. So go to her website, read her blog, buy her artwork!!!!

NOW!
